Legal action launched against TUI after 36 Brit holidaymakers fall ill at Egyptian resort

Several holidaymakers from around the UK are launching legal proceedings after falling ill during stays at a premium resort in Egypt. Gastric symptoms were suffered by 36 people while holidaying at the five-star Jaz Aquamarine hotel in Hurghada between January and October 2019.

Four of them were hospitalised while eight people had Salmonella, one had the stomach bug Giardiasis and another person had E.Coli and Shigella. Among those affected include a newlywed couple on their honeymoon, a mum and her two children.

They all booked their stays through TUI and it is against the tour operator they have started legal action. Michelle Crowther, 43, and her two children Molly, 13, and George, 10, from Croydon, South London, all fell ill shortly after arrival.
